Warner Bros. announced last week that Rooney Mara will play Tiger Lily in the 2015 Peter Pan remake, and more than 4,000 people have already made their unhappiness known via a new Care2 petition. The petition, which has nearly reached its goal of 5,000 signatures, asks the studio to "stop casting white actors to play people of color!"

According to Variety, the movie plans to create a world that is "multi-racial/international," but as the petition notes, all three of the big stars (Mara, Hugh Jackman, and Garrett Hedlund) currently attached to the project are white. Kristi Arnold, the petition's author, also wrote, "This casting choice is particularly shameful for a children's movie. Telling children their role models must all be white is unacceptable."

While some have argued that Peter Pan is set in a fantasy world and thus does not need to conform to real-life expectations of diversity, Tiger Lily has always been portrayed as Native American (and sometimes in an extremely problematic way, as in Disney's animated version of the tale). Before settling on Mara, Warner Bros. reportedly considered actresses like Lupita Nyong'o and Adéle Exarchopoulos, both of whom would give at least a little credence to the studio's alleged goal of an "international" Neverland, but it should also be noted that neither Nyong'o or Exarchopoulos are Native American, either.

After all the controversy stirred up by Johnny Depp's role as Tonto in last year's much-maligned Lone Ranger, you would think that Hollywood might have finally learned that people are really tired of seeing white people play not-white people in movies, but apparently that is not the case.
